Whaler Central - Boston Whaler Boat Information and Photos

Thread subject: Whaler Central - Boston Whaler Boat Information and Photos :: Early Outrage Bow Chock/Light Details

Posted by Blackduck on 04/26/17 - 7:17 AM

I'm looking for a close up photo, and any information, on the light/chock combination used on the early 70's 19's. The light is different than those used on newer boats. I looked at a boat this morning, but the light was more or less rotted off, of what looks to be a more or less typical chock assembly.

After a bit more research, I found a discussion of the light in question http://www.whalercentral.com/forum/vi...rowstart=0 I still would like to know the maker of the light, so if you have one, maybe the information is stamped on the inside of the light.

I betcha Larry (Finnegan) knows. He has a 1975.

Both my 1971 and my 1975 Outrages' have the standard bow light that everyone is familiar with, and now being reproduced by Specialty Marine.. I guess the "puck" light fell between those years, most likely beginning in Aug 1972 with the introduction of the Smoothside 21 and the 19.

I don't have any other information on the puck light, and have never seen one.

I'm looking for a light that is not in the "puck" style, and it is different than the 2nd light in the older thread that I referred to-The boat I looked at this morning is in untouched original condition, but rough. I was just curious to see if anyone had ever seen this version of the bow chock, light.

Walter,

I am confused on which light you are looking at.

What light are you referring too?
Any photo?

I will try to get a photo of what is left of the light this weekend-

Went to look at the bow light in question this morning, and it is the "puck" style, just like the one pictured in the old discussion.
